Rowlet is a small, avian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a young owl with a round body and short legs. Its plumage is primarily beige with a white underside and {{wp|facial disc}}. The facial disc itself is in the shape of two overlapping circles. It has large black eyes and a stubby beak. The top part of its beak is white, while the lower half is orange-brown. Its feet have two forward-facing toes and one backward-facing toe; they are the same color as the lower half of its beak. Two leaves sprout from its chest arranged to resemble a bowtie. Additional leaves form its tail and line the undersides of its wings.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Rowlet is based on an {{wp|owl}}, sharing the most similarities with members of the {{wp|Barn-owl|Tytonidae}} family — species collectively known as "barn owls" that have heart-shaped faces and dark eyes. In particular, it closely resembles the {{wp|Barn owl|common barn owl}}, which was introduced to [[wikipedia:Hawaii|Hawaii]], the region which [[Alola]] was based on. Alternatively, it may be inspired by the {{wp|Eastern grass owl}} or the {{wp|African grass owl}}, along with the local {{wp|Pueo|pueo owl}}, a subspecies of the {{wp|short-eared owl}} that is known for flying over grassy areas on the {{wp|Hawaiian Islands}}, hence its {{t|Grass}} typing. Its round body without {{wp|ear tuft}} may also draw inspiration from {{wp|tawny owl}}s or {{wp|boreal owl}}s. The leaves under its beak make the shape of a {{wp|bow tie}}.
